- Frequency (Percentage) of Participants With Adverse Drug Reactions [ Time Frame: Up to 104 weeks from first administration of study drug ]Percentage of participants with adverse drug reactions (ADRs) is presented. An ADR is defined as an adverse event (AE) for which either the investigator or the sponsor (or both) assess the causal relationship to Prazaxa® Capsules either as "Related", "Probably related", or "Cannot be denied".
- Incidences of Stroke and Systemic Embolism (SEE) [ Time Frame: Up to 104 weeks from first administration of study drug ]Incidence rate of Stroke and SEE (number of patients per 100 patient year) with 95% confidence interval (CI) is reported. Stroke and SEE were recorded as adverse events (AEs) of special interest. Exact Poisson confidence intervals are presented for incidence rate.
